concern: I Be it known thatI, HARVEY BLACKBURX, a citizen of theUnitedStates, residing. at

.. Evansville, in the county of Vand'e'rburg and 5 State of Indiana;have invented a new and j r useful-Beer-Coil Cleaner, of which thefollow- {formed in the valve between the ports ing is a specification.

My invention relates to useful improvements in beer coil cleaners and 1provided with passage-ways G has for its object to provide adevice whichs very simple and-cheap .in construction, and

- one which is very efiective. in use.

' coupling.

' Another object of and quickly thoroughlyin ave shorttime.

Another object o my lnvention is to prothe device so that the air andcleaning fluid can be easily controlled.

With these objects in view, the invention consists of the novel featuresof construction,

, combination and arrangement of(parts herev25 inafter fully describedand pointe out in the claims. I i In the-drawings forming a part of thiss ecification:Figure 1 is a perspective view 0 the device attached tothecoil and faucet. Figs. 2 and 3 are section views'of the valve showingthe plugs turned in different ositions.. Fig. 4 is a section view of them ber Fig. 5 is asectionalview of one of the jar caps. Referring to thedrawings A and B, indicate a (pair of glass jars,in which the cleaningflui is adapted'to be placed. The jars are provided with screw-threadednecks, on which metal caps A and B, are adapted to be secured. The capsare rovided with threaded openings A, A and 2 and B Metal pipes C and Dare arranged in the these pipes, the tube C, being adapted to beconnected to the end' of the coil R, and the,

- p)ipe D, is provided with'an elastic coupling which is adapted to. fitover the faucet S. Curved pipes E and F, are arranged in theSpecificationof Letters I'atent. 7 Application filed-November 1"], 1905;Serial No. 287.817.

and B and are connected to the of the valve G, which is also providedwith a port G which is connected to a rubber tube H, leading from theair are GI and G for the purpose hereinafter described.

certain new and The-valve is provided with a turning plug G and G Thepassage-way G being adapted to be turned by'the handle G so as toconnect the air port G with either one of the ports G or G as desired.It will be seen that when the j v I port G is connected to the port G,the port attached without disconnecting the coilfrom G the faucet, andone that will clean the-coil j will be connected to the exhaust port Gor vice-versa so as to allow the air to escape from .the jar, in whichthe cleaning liquid is entering as to prevent any back pressure.

From the foregoing description it will be seen that Ihave provided avery simple and cheap device in which the cleanin fluid can e coil, bymerely turning the handle of the valve as the direction of the fluid isregulated by the position of the handle, and is shown by arrows in Fi 1,passing in one direction.

Iiaving thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new anddesire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. In a device of the kinddescribed, the

combination with jars adapted to contain cleaning'fiuid, of tubescarried by sald jars adapted to be connected respectively to the ends ofa coil, pipes connecting said jars carrying avalve provided with anexhaust and an connected to said valve by said tank adapted to containcompressed air for forcing the li uid out of one. jar through the coilto the ot er jar.

2. In a device of the kind described, the combination witha pair of jarscarrying rubber-tubes adapted to be connected to the upwardly from saidjars, a valve casing-connected to said pipes provided with exhaustports, and an air tank connected to said valve casing, and Pl in. saidscribed.-
